Offices Designed for Success at Delante Accountants & Business Advisers

July 11, 2017

A minimalist style and a fresh vision were the starting point for Delante Accountants & Business Advisers' new office fit-out in Taren point. 

The business owners and our team worked closely together to give the new company and the growing team a modern, creative and inviting space to work in. 

As a forward thinking company, Delante wanted to promote collaboration and team work. They achieved this through clusters of Benchwork workstations in the open office, featuring our Trak perspex panels and Logic monitor arms. 

The white and light woodgrain tones in the open space nicely contrast with the Cafe Oak finishes in the surrounding executive offices furnished with Aero desks and returns and Universal storage. Grey Tang visitor chairs compliment the offices' earthy colours. 

The elegant Cafe Oak finish was carried into the boardroom which hosts a Universal wall mounted credenza and Oslo boardroom table creating the perfect space to receive clients.

Life and pop of colours were added throughout the space thanks to our Globe planters and vibrant Pop chairs paired with our Dart table to create an informal meeting space and breakout area for the team. 

Ample storage was provided with our steel storage range, from individual mobile caddies, to Globe tambour and sliding door cupboards in the open space as well as a storage room fully furnished with filing cabinets and open shelving. 

Combining style and functionality, this space has been designed with all the elements for success.

5 Office Design Tips to Boost Employee Wellbeing

July 3, 2017

It’s no secret that happier employees are more productive, so why not consider these few office design tips to help boost employee wellbeing.

1.   Encourage Movement - Provide a variety of working spaces that give staff the choice of where and how they prefer to work.  Integrating sit to stand desks, providing flexible working spaces and promoting activity based work are all great ways to achieve this. Also try and promote an active lifestyle through initiatives like competitions and company fitness activities. 

2.  Breakout Spaces – Every office should have somewhere for staff to take a break. Café areas promote emotional wellbeing by creating a sense of community and belonging. Providing a balanced offering of both comfortable and practical lounges, tables and chairs is key.

3.  Collaboration Areas – Collaboration zones play an important role in boosting engagement and employee wellbeing. Consider creating in-office meeting spaces, extra movable stools, and user friendly boardrooms and meeting rooms.

4.  Private Spaces – Open offices can sometimes be very distracting to employees, consider integrating quiet zones,  phone booths and huddle spaces where staff can choose to work when they need a break from the hustle and bustle.

5.  Décor - Ensure you have the right office ambience, take into consideration elements like lighting, artwork and furniture colouring and whether your office is an appealing and warm place to work. Planter boxes are a simple way to instantly lift the mood, plants have a plethora of proven benefits including improved air quality, heightened temperature regulation and stress reduction.

Wisdom Homes Luxurious New Headquarters is Complete

June 14, 2017

Demonstrating aesthetic finesse and design practicality, Wisdom Homes’ new headquarters exudes contemporary appeal.  

Showcasing our furnishings in a brilliant blend of woodgrain, black, grey and white, a unique and impressive outlook has been created.

The large two story workspace features a number of zones including workstation areas, boardrooms, in-office breakout spaces, quiet work areas, meeting rooms and training rooms. With functionality and aesthetics at the top of mind we were able to provide a solution for every scenario.  

Keywork workstations were a standout, being used throughout the main offices, boardroom, executive offices and quiet working rooms.

Trak accessory rails featured prominently hosting a variety of acoustic screens and planters. Globe sliding door units in black with custom Notaio Walnut melamine planters were placed around the office to fulfil storage needs whilst providing another element of greenery.

Nataio Walnut Keywork spine units and custom joinery accentuated the executive offices, along with the use of Miro and Miro S chairs.  Zorro chairs were also applied remarkably, being used as visitor chairs in executive offices, Axis work pods and in meeting rooms.

Logic monitor arms were integrated on every desk, providing staff and executives with the ability to have multiple screens and laptop holders.

Axis was used to create separate in-office workspaces for management, the selection of grey and black bringing a smart look to the area and tying in well with the use of the woodgrain colour surrounding them.  

A Jam counter table with Zorro stools provided a casual in-office meeting area where colour consultants and design specialists can sit comfortably to meet and brainstorm. Training rooms were also dressed radiantly hosting Oslo mobile tables and Miro chairs.

Wisdom Homes’ new boardroom is also commendable, the striking use of Baz chairs and Keywork boardroom table oozes luxury. Framed with a beautiful feature roof and glass doors overlooking the entire office it’s a boardroom fully equipped for the making of the most important decisions.

All in all, Wisdom’s new headquarters is certainly equipped with all the elements for success.
